escorting duty all the time.
6th March
We had to go out for so prisoners and they was a very
miserable and ragged hungry lot I can tell you from my
own lips that I felt as if I could have shot the lot of
them they ask us what they was going to do with them and
we told them that they would find room somewhere for you
and at this time we had 7 days and nights rain so you can
guess what it was like wet through every day there was a
couple of them about 82 years old and they could not get
up on the wagon they had to be lifted up.
